Neville around the world

Who’s getting the biggest career bump from the success of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2? It’s STILL surprising to me that it’s Neville. That Neville, the new “heartthrob” might be, like, some kind of action star one day. Neville!

After trips to Toronto, Washington, and Chicago last week to promote the movie, here’s Matthew Lewis in Australia today at the preview for the Harry Potter Exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney. Look at him all hot and hunky with his toned arms in a well fit shirt. Many, many, many of you have written to remark that Matthew reminds you of a younger Clive Owen. Well now THAT’s promising, isn’t it? Neville the ugly duckling becomes a future Clive Owen?

Again... what is this world?

You probably know by now but just in case – Matthew has a Twitter. He tweeted the other day upon arrival in Sydney that he’d received a text from Emma Watson about how the movie was breaking records. Harry made history this weekend. Harry also made a LOT of money. How many times did Harry make money off you? I went to see it again on Saturday with my friend Fiona. Totally cried again. Totally loved it all over again.

But I love that the kids, they care about this kind of thing. I mean, of course they do. They just keep pretending they don’t. Actors LOVE winning. Maybe more than anyone else.
